Chorus:Listen, mr. bigot, listen to me, i'll give you a lesson in historyListen while i tell you that the foreigners you hateAre the very same people made america great.Oh listen mr. bigot, uh-huh...listen mr. bigot

In 1492, just to see what he could seeColumbus, who was an italian set out across the seaHe said "isabella, baby, the world is roundAnd the usa's just awaitin' to be found."

(chorus)

Oh listen mr. bigot, (well, some of my best friends are)Listen mr. bigot (oh, they like to live with their own kind)

Well when the king of england started pushin' yanks aroundThey had a little trouble up in boston townBut a brave, black, crispus attucks was the manThe first one to fall when the fightin' began.

Now bigot, you're taking one hell of a chanceYour good friends the duponts, came over from franceAnother thing i'm sure will be news to youThe first mr. bigot was a foreigner too.

(chorus)

You don't like blacks, you don't like jewsWell if there's anyone you do like, it sure is newsYou don't like poles, hispanics tooAnyway they serve you up, we don't like you

(chorus)

Oh listen mr. bigot,(well there we were on the beach, just trying to get some sunAnd up comes a busload of them, well first they got these boxes that play this music, i mean it's not even in english.Then they take out these stoves or hibachi's or somethingThe smoke was dreadful, the smell was even worse.I wouldn't let my daughter marry one, ya know?)
